Zierlein mock draft 2.0: Browns pick Barkley first, trade up

GFAN52 : 3/8/2018 1:23 pm
Browns trade up with Colts instead of Giants to get their QB.

Quote:
PICK
1
Saquon Barkley - RB, Penn State
If the Browns really like a QB, then they will take one here. If they don't, Barkley can help change the culture in the locker room and on the field.

PICK
2
Sam Darnold - QB, USC
There are several directions the Giants could go in with this pick, but with a strong pro day later this month, Darnold could be their guy.

PICK
3
Josh Allen - QB, Wyoming
PROJECTED TRADE WITH COLTS. If Barkley goes first overall, the Browns will have steep competition from teams looking to trade ahead of them for a QB. In this scenario, the Browns deal with the Colts to secure Allen and make sure they add a quarterback with the physical traits GM John Dorsey usually covets.

PICK
4
Bradley Chubb - DE, N.C. State
PROJECTED TRADE WITH BROWNS. If The Colts get a big offer, I'm sure they would move further back in the first round. In this scenario, the Colts could move back one spot and still get Chubb. However, trading back again could be in the cards for the Colts as the board shakes out and GM Chris Ballard looks to stockpile draft picks.

PICK
5
Josh Rosen - QB, UCLA
We will see how the free-agency period plays out for the Broncos, but Rosen fits a big need as of this writing, and he might be game-ready enough to get the ball to talented targets right off the bat.

PICK
6
Tremaine Edmunds - LB, Virginia Tech
The Jets could get their QB in free agency. ... There could also be three QBs off the board by this pick. Either way, Edmunds is an athletic, explosive option.

PICK
7
Minkah Fitzpatrick - DB, Alabama
Fitzpatrick offers the Bucs a hybrid piece to help counter teams like the Saints that are always looking for matchup advantages.

PICK
8
Quenton Nelson - OG, Notre Dame
With the Bears having a need at the position and Nelson's Notre Dame O-line coach, Harry Hiestand, taking over those duties in Chicago, Nelson would fit perfectly.

You beat me by 1 minute ;), so I deleted mine

I could see the Browns doing this.

Maybe like both QBs or figure the Giants wouldn't draft Allen. But, they would probably need to like both for this to work.

The cost would be less in compensation, but the Browns would need close to equal grades on some QBs knowing the Giants could grab one at 2.
I can guarantee the Browns will take Barkley

Because that's who I want the Giants to take, and it's my fate to be a disappointed Giants fan.

Imagine the fate you would feel as a Browns fan the last decade.
As much as I want Barkley  
Bluesbreaker : 3/8/2018 3:47 pm : link
I won't complain if they go QB if they do then Rosen is
the guy . I cross my fingers Eli gets one more ring .
We gave up two picks already and I love the trade we have
a proven LB who is a playmaker and can cover . A better
than Boley type move . if they go QB then #2 will go O-line
what will be left at pick #3 RB ? I am not impressed with
anyone on the roster Gallman is a decent back up .
I could see the Jets taking Edmunds

They'll turn him into Trent Richardson 2.0.
Browns can do WTF they want to do  
TMS : 3/8/2018 4:08 pm : link
with all their picks. Been rough years in Cleveland so they paid dearly for a long time. Good luck Cleveland. We will get a starter with our pick, hope he is a blue chipper.
Wait, you think the Browns will select two qb's?  
SterlingArcher : 3/8/2018 4:48 pm : link
Don't they already have a 1st round qb on their roster? Are you thinking they will have three 1st round qb's on their roster?
